* And [these ] are the children of Israel after their number , the chief fathers and captains of thousands and hundreds , and their officers that served the king in every matter of the divisions , which came in and went out month by month throughout the months of the year ; in every division were twenty-four thousand . * Over the first division for the first month was Jashobeam the son of Zabdiel ; and in his division were twenty-four thousand . * He was of the children of Pherez , the head of all the captains of the hosts for the first month . * And over the division of the second month was Dodai the Ahohite ; and in his division was Mikloth ruler ; and in his division were twenty-four thousand . * The third captain of the host for the third month was Benaiah (the son of Jehoiada , a principal officer ): [he was ] head ; and in his division were twenty-four thousand . * This Benaiah was a mighty man among the thirty , and above the thirty ; and in his division was Ammizabad his son . * The fourth for the fourth month was Asahel the brother of Joab , and Zebadiah his son after him ; and in his division were twenty-four thousand . * The fifth for the fifth month was the captain Shamhuth the Jizrahite ; and in his division were twenty-four thousand . * The sixth for the sixth month was Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite ; and in his division were twenty-four thousand . * The seventh for the seventh month was Helez the Pelonite , of the children of Ephraim ; and in his division were twenty-four thousand . * The eighth for the eighth month was Sibbechai the Hushathite , of the Zarhites ; and in his division were twenty-four thousand . * The ninth for the ninth month was Abiezer the Anathothite , of the Benjaminites ; and in his division were twenty-four thousand . * The tenth for the tenth month was Maharai the Netophathite , of the Zarhites ; and in his division were twenty-four thousand . * The eleventh for the eleventh month was Benaiah the Pirathonite , of the children of Ephraim ; and in his division were twenty-four thousand . * The twelfth for the twelfth month was Heldai the Netophathite , of Othniel ; and in his division were twenty-four thousand . * And over the tribes of Israel were : for the Reubenites Eliezer the son of Zichri was the prince ; for the Simeonites , Shephatiah the son of Maachah ; * for the Levites , Hashabiah the son of Kemuel ; for Aaron , Zadok ; * for Judah , Elihu of the brethren of David ; for Issachar , Omri the son of Michael ; * for Zebulun , Jishmaiah the son of Obadiah ; for Naphtali , Jerimoth the son of Azriel ; * for the children of Ephraim , Hosea the son of Azaziah ; for the half tribe of Manasseh , Joel the son of Pedaiah ; * for the half [tribe ] of Manasseh in Gilead , Jiddo the son of Zechariah ; for Benjamin , Jaasiel the son of Abner ; * for Dan , Azareel the son of Jeroham . These were the princes of the tribes of Israel . * And David took not their number from twenty years old and under ; for Jehovah had said he would increase Israel as the stars of heaven . * Joab the son of Zeruiah began to number , but he did not finish ; and there fell wrath for it upon Israel ; and the number was not put in the account of the chronicles of king David . * And over the king 's treasures was Azmaveth the son of Adiel ; and over the storehouses in the country , in the cities , and in the villages , and in the towers was Jonathan the son of Uzziah . * And over them that worked in the field for tillage of the ground was Ezri the son of Chelub . * And over the vineyards was Shimei the Ramathite ; and over what was in the vineyards of stores of wine was Zabdi the Shiphmite : * and over the olive-trees and the sycamore-trees that were in the lowland was Baal-hanan the Gederite ; and over the cellars of oil was Joash . * And over the herds that fed in Sharon was Shitrai the Sharonite ; and over the herds in the valleys was Shaphat the son of Adlai . * And over the camels was Obil the Ishmaelite ; and over the asses was Jehdiah the Meronothite . * And over the flocks was Jaziz the Hagarite . All these were comptrollers of the substance which was king David 's . * And Jonathan , David 's uncle , was counsellor , a wise man , and a scribe ; and Jehiel the son of Hachmoni was with the king 's sons ; * and Ahithophel was the king 's counsellor ; and Hushai the Archite was the king 's friend ; * and after Ahithophel was Jehoiada the son of Benaiah , and Abiathar ; and Joab was captain of the king 's army .
